This open-access book
thoroughly covers all the foundational topics of organic chemistry, including
bonding and molecular structure, nomenclature, isomerism, and stereochemistry.
Physical organic chemistry is covered in great detail, particularly acids,
bases, and electron flow mechanisms at the heart of organic reactions. This book
explores the key organic reactions, including nucleophilic substitution,
elimination reactions, and electrophilic additions. The book is designed to give
students a conceptual understanding and hands-on tools in mastering the
complicated organic chemistry subject, with clear explanations and many examples
of chemical processes.
This is an all-inclusive
resource that explores organic chemistry, right from basic concepts such as
structure and bonding to comprehensive organic reactions and spectroscopy
techniques. The topics include polar covalent bonds, acids and bases, detailed
studies of organic compounds which include alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and
organohalides. Stereochemistry is discussed in the book, which incorporates
aspects surrounding tetrahedral centers and cycloalkanes, along with detailed
mechanisms of nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions. It also
introduces spectroscopy methods like mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy
for structure determination, affording students ample theoretical knowledge
along with practical skills in organic synthesis and analysis.
